In general, I probably do not fit into the stereotypical image of a geek. I've never been a fan of Star Trek and I've never played Dungeons & Dragons. I have never been to a Renaissance Faire and I wore contacts in High School. Most importantly, I was horrible in math! To compensate, I often use movie quotes and I generally have my nose stuck in a book. I think the icing on the cake is that I really, really wish I was at ComicCon right now.
Thanks to Twitter, I am fully aware of everything I'm missing. Two authors that I greatly admire are speaking in forums, signing autographs and giving away all kinds of free stuff. While I'm not really an autograph seeker, I would totally be sitting in the front row, taking notes, during their forums. These guys are masters in their fields and I can only imagine the pearls of wisdom they'll be sharing. Maybe one day I will get there myself. Until then, can anyone teach me how to play Dungeons & Dragons?
